Palomares and Derman mention that topic avoidance is a "means to an end," suggesting that topic avoidance tends to be a way in which someone achieves a goal. However, the authors never explore how people avoid topics. Therefore, propose a few different avoidance strategies (i.e., concealing information tactics) that people might use to avoid topics, and then compare and contrast how each strategy might affect (1) perceived hurt, (2) perceived relational distance, and (3) relationship satisfaction
